When you see the collaboration of Marcin Jakobowski and his team — perhaps you too will be inspired by the determined efforts of highly skilled and dedicated individuals. Just think — the Open Source Hardware Project … could help rebuild America by providing essential tools. Empowering local communities to share with each other to provide shelter and food — back to basics.
Marcin states:
“Our tools are being made for the American Farmer, builder, entrepreneur, maker. We’ve seen lots of excitement from these people who can now start a construction business, parts manufacturing, organic csa, or just selling power back to the grid.
Our goal is a repository of published designs so clear, so complete that a single burned DVD is effectively a civilization starter kit.”
